I experienced a storage issue because I saved all data in a zero-byte folder instead of using the default one. Wiztree confirmed I had 60 GB of Minecraft in my c folder. After uninstalling and reinstalling, it still switched back to c. It begins small but expands to 60 GB over three days, even when playing vanilla with no mods or worlds, except on Hypixel. Is there a method to move Minecraft to D instead?

Check if you transferred the game folder or simply reinstalled it to D:\ instead of C:\. It’s likely continuing to save world data to your %APPDATA% path within the C:\Users directory.

You're referring to a 60 GB storage size. It's important to specify whether you're using the Java or Bedrock version of Minecraft. If it's Java, check your .minecraft files in your home folder; for Bedrock, it can be a bit trickier but usually re-installing helps. That much space would require an extremely large world.
